An update for pacemaker is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

The Pacemaker cluster resource manager is a collection of technologies working together to provide data integrity and the ability to maintain application availability in the event of a failure.

The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version:
pacemaker (1.1.15). (BZ#1304771)

Security Fix(es) :

* It was found that the connection between a pacemaker cluster and a pacemaker_remote node could be shut down using a new unauthenticated connection. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-7797)

Red Hat would like to thank Alain Moulle (ATOS/BULL) for reporting this issue.
